My Julia code uses DistributedArrays, @sync and @async blocks, and I didn’t want to modify it too much. So I did the [following](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/julia-on-cluster-with-ssh-restriction/11823/12) as suggested by @barche. using MyModules, MPI # serial part of code # here to set options for parallel run # parallel start mgr = MPI.start\_main\_loop(MPI.MPI\_TRANSPORT\_ALL) addprocs(nworkers) @info "w…
